The "Forester e-Boxer" was created with its owner in mind. The advantages of the "Forester" – high versatility, excellent weight balance, and the highest allowable towing capacity in its class – are the reasons why the "Forester" has become a favorite among families promoting an active lifestyle and their first choice. Built on a new modular "Subaru" platform, this car is rated the highest globally in all safety tests.
The engine system "Motor Assist" consists of: a "Boxer" type engine and an S-AWD system. The new e-BOXER features the same low center of gravity and the proven balance and efficiency of the symmetrical all-wheel-drive system. This compact but powerful engine is installed near the vehicle's center of gravity, while the battery and other components are located above the rear axle. By lowering the center of gravity even further and better balancing the distribution of the vehicle's mass between the front and rear axles than in the gasoline-powered model, the new e-Boxer operates even more efficiently and flexibly without sacrificing safety.
